There are no funds in the budget of the Mykolaiv region for the restoration of the facade of the music college

As of October 2024, there are no funds in the budget of the Mykolaiv Region for the restoration of the facade of the historical building of the Regional College of Music.

This is stated in the article NikVesti «No grand piano has been bought in 50 years». How the Mykolaiv Music College works despite the war and terrible conditions».

At present, there is no current project for the restoration of the college building, the editors of the Department of Architecture and Urban Planning of the Mykolaiv Regional Military Administration reported. There they say that the previous project is out of date and you may have to order a new one.

«The project was developed around 2016, but we do not have a more precise date. Taking into account the changes in the current state building regulations, its use for the purpose of adjustment is most likely economically impractical. We need to order a new project,» they said.

At the same time, there are currently no funds for the restoration of the facade in the regional budget, the department reported. The only possible option today, they say, is the financing of the works at the expense of international donors.

«In the conditions of martial law and hostilities, this issue is not timely at the moment. That is, the solution to the issue of restoration of the college is currently possible under the condition of the initiative of donors. DFRD or the «Major Construction» and «Major Restoration» programs are currently not funded,» the RMA added.

The management of the institution understands the fact that during the war they are not allocated funds for the repair of the facade. Although it is not hidden that this issue was not given enough attention.

«No reconstruction is being done, but we understand this. Now is the war and, of course, all forces must be directed elsewhere. Then we can be a little patient. But we endure not only these years, since the 22nd. As long as there is a facility, we tolerate as much. There are always no funds, there are never any funds: there were none 20 years ago, and there were none 30 years ago, said the director of the college,» Anatolii Syrota.

In October 2024, NikVesti wrote that the historical building of one of the buildings of the regional college of musical arts is gradually disappearing in the center of Mykolaiv. And also that the college is forced to plan to reduce places for entrants in 2025.
